NOTICE: I TOOK MY POST ON YSTC AND COPIED IT TO HERE

sooo ya here ya go:

Well where I live it has FINALLY warmed up, and (hopefully) it is going to stay that way for a while. So I decided to give my tC what it really wants.... some good old fashion TLC. So I got out my bucket of detailing goodies and washed and waxed the tC. Thus my tC was all shinny, and I had to go take some fresh new pics, especially since I just put on the 5zigens with my new NITTO Neogens. Unfortunately I didn’t make it out of the driveway for the pics, but I figured they were better than a lot of the pics on this forum, because for some reason on this forum people just post up about any and every pic they have of their tC, well that is except for Doc's new pics, and a few others out there. But anywho after I got some day shots I waited for nightfall so I could have a chance with night shots. Unfortunately the night shots did not turn out very good, but I was able to mess around with p/s and make them a little better, but yet the night pics are still not very crisp or sharp. But I was aiming at not getting yellow night pics, and they did not turn out that way so I was pretty pleased with the results.


Well anywho here are my pics, I have quite a few but I figured since I haven’t posted a pic on this forum since October so w/e... I hope you all enjoy

I am still working on how to take better night shots, soo any and all comments about those are welcomed.

what kind of wax do you use? and if its hard wax, do you use electric buffer? i've tried a couple of different waxes and all have yielded less than satisfactory results.
